Valpo Ends Scoring Draught, Still Falls to UMKC
Friday, October 03, 2003Owen Hoyt (Spring Grove, Ill./Prairie Ridge H.S.) scored Valparaiso's first goal in nearly 600 minutes, but it was not enough as the Crusaders dropped their Mid-Continent Conference opener to UMKC 3-1 on Friday afternoon at Eastgate Field.
Hoyt took a cross from Mark Korba (Portage, Ind./Portage H.S.) in front of the net and beat Kangaroo goalkeeper Todd Dohlman at the 32:28 mark to tie the match at one. The goal was Valpo's first in 584:57, since the first half of their match with Butler on September 7.
UMKC took an early lead on Dan Hilson's goal from 15 yards out at the 12:50 mark after picking up a deflection from Drew Perkins. Following Hoyt's tally, Ryan Kaufman put the Kangaroos back on top before intermission from in front deflecting the ball off of the crossbar into the back of the net at 39:30.
John Clark added an insurance goal at the 59:55 mark after taking a Hilson cross from the right and scoring from the left side of the penalty area.
Valpo (0-7-2, 0-1 Mid-Con) outshot UMKC 16-8 for the match, but the Kangaroos held an 8-5 advantage on goal. Dohlman made four saves for UMKC (3-5-1, 1-0) while Jeff Oleck (Indianapolis, Ind./Cathedral H.S.) made four stops for the Brown and Gold.
Valparaiso will return to action on Sunday afternoon when the Crusaders host Centenary in Mid-Continent Conference action. Kickoff time is 1 p.m.

It's safe to say that Michel Fokine never dreamed of the spaghetti bodies dancing his works in the Mariinsky Ballet today. He could never have imagined the prevailing extremes of flexibility, the whoopee collisions of classical shape and modern contortion.
Nevertheless, in the early 1900s, when the visionary Russian was creating works for St. Petersburg's Mariinsky and for the roving Ballets Russes, he railed against far lesser elements of acrobatics and showiness. This is what prompted him to create "Chopiniana," a tribute to classical purity and the primacy of great music; "The Firebird," in which only the mysterious, ephemeral title character had the privilege of dancing en pointe; and "Scheherazade," a showcase for feeling and drama, rather than steps.

Boston Red Sox pitcher Jon Lester, right, gets a fist bump from pitching coach Juan Nieves after throwing a bullpen session at spring training Wednesday, Feb. 13, 2013, in Fort Myers, Fla. (AP Photo/Chris O'Meara)
"I love baseball. I love Boston," he said. "People don't see me other than the fifth day. When I'm out there, I'm not out there to kid around. I'm not out there to joke around with hitters. At the same time, I'm having fun. It may not look like it. I may be cussing up a storm and yelling at somebody, but I'm having fun. I love to pitch. I love everything that is pitching, everything there is to baseball."
Lester won 34 games in the previous two seasons leading up to last year.
"I don't want to also come across as lackadaisical and not really caring about working hard. I take everything I do very seriously. I want my workouts to be the way they should be. I want my bullpen (session) to go the way it should. I want my game to go the way it should," he said. "If it doesn't, I'm going to be (upset). That's just who I am. At the same time, yeah, I can improve on those in-between days where you don't take it as serious. But I'd rather be on the serious side and work my way down than be the goofball and work my way up."
Despite all the negatives last season, Lester insists there were positives, too. There where he wants his focus.
"Hopefully, you just keep building off those," he said, "and your expectations get higher and higher from there."

Jade Bay is a private area developed on the Riviera Maya coastline. It's a place where peace, family bonding and ultimate relaxation become reality. A place, where building sand castles with your kids or relaxing by the pool become the most urgent priorities for the day.
It's also the place where the amazing Villa Margarita has been built.
Nestled on the white coral sand of Jade Bay, this luxurious four bedroom beach home is the perfect getaway for large families or several couples travelling together.
The moment you find yourself inside the villa, you will feel work stress and worries melt away quicker than ice melts in a Margarita on a sunny Caribbean day.
A wide foyer leads you into the large open-floor living space that consists of a modern, fully-equipped kitchen with a stylish breakfast bar, a sunken living area and a cozy indoor dining area, facing the Caribbean and the pool.
Wide glass sliders expand the living space onto a gorgeous pool patio, framed by white columns and elegant arches. It's truly hard to capture on camera the million-dollar view that opens up from here. Just imagine a warm sea breeze that smells of the sun and salty ocean air. An originally shaped turquoise pool, surrounded by a carpet-soft green lawn. Slender palm trees, a big beach palapa with hammocks a few steps away and miles of crystalline turquoise water disappearing into the horizon.
This is the awe-inspiring view that you will see from each of the 4 bedrooms of the house. In fact, all the bedrooms of Villa Margarita are equally-spacious and come with en-suite bathrooms, and individual ocean decks (3 upstairs bedrooms) or private access to a poolside patio (1 downstairs bedroom). Three of the bedrooms are furnished with fixed king-size beds and one has a king that separates into two twins, providing additional flexibility for groups.
The upper floor of the house also hosts a family entertainment room, equipped with a satellite TV, VCR, WiFi internet, 2 comfortable futon sofa beds for additional sleeping and a private patio overlooking the village of Akumal and the lush tropical jungle.
If you want to enjoy more panoramic views of both the Jungle and Jade Bay, take the spiral stairway to the rooftop deck. It's an ideal spot to savor your evening Margaritas and admire the breathtaking Caribbean sunsets.
Other fun and relaxing activities to embrace at Villa Margarita, besides sipping Margaritas include lounging by the pool, taking well-deserved siesta naps in a hammock under the beach palapa, exploring the center of Akumal, shopping at Playa Del Carmen or organizing outdoor cookouts and driving the neighbors crazy with the head-spinning aromas of sizzling BBQ ribs and seafood.
The Bottom line is Villa Margarita has all the right ingredients for a memorable vacation Riviera Maya style. All you have to do to claim it for yourself is to add this property to your inquiry.
4 bedrooms. Maximum 10 people.
We represent so many small, quaint facilities, privately-owned homes and we coordinate availability with local people. Add Villa Margarita to your inquiry, we will get back with you, confirm availability and of course, answer any question you might have!

In Our Backyard provides recommendations for overcoming obstacles to widespread adoption of distributed renewable energy generation. We identify four barriers to decentralized renewable energy production: lack of predictable and adequate financing; uncertain permitting and regulatory programs; lack of education and outreach; and split incentives of landlords versus tenants. We propose short and long-term solutions at multiple policy levels, from federal and state governments to local utilities and industry leaders.

First drive: Volkswagen Scirocco - Introduction
Article 1 of 6 See all
The new Scirocco is loosely based on a Golf GTi, but as well as being longer and wider than the seminal hot hatch, the Sirocco's suspension has also been specially tuned to take advantage of its low ride height.
We've driven the car on only a test track at a remote, former Soviet airbase, but it's already clear that the Scirocco delivers plenty of what we were hoping for.

It's actually perfectly understandable that Gov. Rick Scott doesn't fully appreciate the problem with texting while driving in Florida.
I mean, I doubt the man drives himself to Publix to get Oreos and chips. I don't think he drives himself and his wife to the movie theatre so he can go see Liam Neeson kick major butt in "Taken 2."
When he wants to do those things, he undoubtedly has a limo driver do the dirty work. So Scott doesn't fully experience the nut cases on our roads who think driving is just an irritant that takes away from the more important task – texting, and talking on the phone.
And besides, Scott is way too busy going to court defend a lot of ridiculous edicts — drug testing welfare recipients, voter purges, etc — that judges have tossed out.
So how could we expect the man to have first-hand experience with texting while driving?
Of course Scott doesn't know. It's the other 19 million Floridians who know.
But have no fear, Florida drivers. Because of a new report that shows traffic fatalities are up four per cent this year, Scott said he'd like highway officials to complete a texting-while-driving study to see if the state needs to take action on the issue.
A study? Oh my God. How decisive. How strong. What amazing leadership.
What a crock.
Anybody who has driven Florida roads — even if you are 18 months old and in a car seat — knows we are infested by clowns who can't resist the urge to text while driving or talk on the phone while driving or do anything EXCEPT drive while driving. You don't need a study — translation: your tax dollars at work — to tell you that.
Neither Scott nor Attorney General Pam Bondi, who also asked for more detail, had shown any interest in the issue before. These folks need to get out more often.
Of course, if and when the study is done — perhaps in our lifetime, perhaps not — I can imagine the result. While it would be nice if Scott got on his soapbox and just said we need to ban texting and driving and let's do it in a hurry, it won't happen. Republicans will say it's all another example of nanny-statism, and they want to keep government out of our lives, and hey, some of those folks on the road are texting their brokers, so it's really important.
What's actually important is that Florida is one of the few places in the United States that has absolutely no restrictions on cellphone use and texting. None.
Virtually every other state bans hand-held devices, or young drivers 18-and-under from texting while driving. There are 39 states that ban all drivers from texting while driving. Even places like Idaho and Wyoming, where about six people drive, have seen fit to ban texting and driving for all drivers.
And in the few states where texting is not banned, like Hawaii, various counties in the state have banned distracted driving.
But not Florida.
Of course, Florida is always late to the dance on many important issues.
Gay adoption? One of the last states to allow it, and only after the courts demanded it.
Gay marriage? In Florida? What a sense of humor you have.
We just don't do things as quickly as other states. Sometimes, we're a century or two behind the times. But we get around to it eventually.
But if Gov. Scott needs a little more practical info on the need for a ban on texting and driving. let him drive the Gov-mobile down to South Florida, and dodge the clowns on 595 or I-95 or State Road 7 or any of a dozen other well-traveled roads.
After that, I don't think Scott will need a study to tell him what is needed.

A clutch cute enough for nights out and big enough for me not to have to make critical decsions between bringing my phone or my lip gloss?? SOLD! I was an instant convert (from my former, tiny, barely-larger-than-a-wristlet clutch-ettes) and remain a fan of the giant clutch.
I met this cute chick at a poolside cocktail hour at Surrender in Las Vegas, hosted by Hudson Denim, at the end of last month:
The color is bold, but not busy and the shape is simple, just exaggerated. And while this pixie-sized gal runs the risk of being overpowered by such a big clutch, she keeps her look interesting with pattern and texture. Lace shorts and stripes on top keep the eye moving and leave the oversized bag to do the support work in the background. I just love everything about this outfit! Get it, Girl.

Despite having to move its meeting from New Orleans to San Francisco after Hurricane Katrina struck last fall, the Alliance for CME drew more than 1,350 attendees to its 31st annual conference, held January 25 to 28. Several attendees said that they thought the educational offerings this year—which covered everything from systems theory to needs assessment to commercial support—surpassed any previous Alliance annual meeting.
R. Van Harrison, PhD, professor of medical education and director of CME with the University of Michigan Medical School, Ann Arbor, kicked off the conference with a plenary presentation that introduced the concept of systems theory. This theory proposes that every living system, from a cell to a global society, is affected by factors in its environment, has its own way of doing things, and creates something of its own. What is output at one level can serve as input at another level. For example, in the healthcare environment, there are systems of scientific discovery, social resources, healthcare as a whole, and medical education. Each of these systems can affect how physicians learn and what they do with what they learn.
"In medicine, the focus tends to be on the biological level. [People in medicine] tend to have blind spots in other areas of the system where they don't have training," Harrison said. He pointed out that physicians live in larger systems, and those issues are not usually addressed in CME. It's not enough just to point physicians toward new clinical information in journals. CME should help physicians translate that information into something they can actually use in their practice environment.
"I see my role as protecting the public from academic physicians," Harrison said with a smile. "They generally don't know the realities of daily practices in a smaller setting," including the cost of implementing a new treatment. "If they recommend more costly treatments, they have to provide justification for the added cost," he said.
One example of systems-based CME for his organization, he said, could be activities about mammography for women who are over 50 years of age. "Our physicians don't need more of the usual CME on mammography. They need to be able to translate it into practice." One way to do that, he said, could be to provide a system that allows physicians to check against the electronic medical record to see which patients are due for a routine mammogram, and send those patients a letter that lets them go straight to the mammography center. "This would allow doctors to use their time to focus on high-risk cases."
The bottom line, said Harrison, is to recognize that your CME unit is a system of its own and a subsystem of a larger framework of systems. To make sure your CME works within this framework, he said, CME providers must prioritize the topics they tackle in activities, and address all the information physicians will need to translate what they learn into practice, from the biological and psychosocial levels to operational and financial realities. (A PDF of Harrison's slides is available at the Alliance for CME's Web site, www.acme-assn.org.)
Real-World CME
Putting this type of systems thinking into action in the real world of CME can be difficult, however. Bernard Marlow, MD, director, CME/CPD with the College of Family Physicians of Canada in Etobicoke, Ontario, spoke on a panel following Harrison's presentation about a survey his organization did of family physicians, most of whom work in different settings, each of which has its own barriers and challenges. Based on the results, the College decided to abandon "one-size-fits-all" CME, since it didn't address the specific needs of different individual settings. It also decided to inject more interactivity into sessions, so physicians can get a more real-life feel for what they're learning. It resolved to think of clinical practice as being "one big classroom," and to find ways to give credit for point-of-care learning.
Outcomes measures can also point to system barriers. After a one-day, intensive course about using spirometry for people with lung disease, the College asked the participants to sign a commitment to change. But six months later, only 40 percent were using the test. The problems they had in implementation had nothing to do with what they learned: There were system problems, such as the procedure not being covered under provincial insurance. It was a big wake-up call, he said.
Marcella Hollinger, MEd, director of education and accreditation, Illinois State Medical Society, Chicago, said her organization is starting to see some of its community hospitals melding their CME and Quality Improvement committees, so they are essentially functioning as one committee. So the CME committee can look at QI data, determine that a particular procedure is being overused, design an intervention, and follow up with further review of QI data to see if things have improved.
In addition, her organization has used its relationship with a medical malpractice group in Illinois to spur some changes. The insurance group has a risk-management process by which it conducts individual practice audits. It then gives the practice recommendations for improvement, and gives a 10 percent discount to those who pass the audit.
Starting in 2006, Hollinger's organization will hook into that system by partnering with the insurance group in three phases: Phase 1 will ask the practicing physician what he/she will do to implement change; Phase 2 will ask what they learned by undergoing the audit process; and Phase 3 will explain the changes that were implemented and how they were implemented. Physicians can get up to 20 AMA PRA Category 1TM credits for participating in all three phases.
Barbara Huffman, MEd, CME manager, Carle Foundation Hospital, Urbana, Ill., said, "If your administration changes, your processes and culture change along with it. "Your system will always have an effect on you," she said.
AMA Update
Near and dear to CME providers' hearts is another system: that of the AMA PRA Category 1 CreditTM. At a packed session, American Medical Association representatives outlined four areas that are new for 2006. The first is that providers need to call it AMA PRA Category 1 CreditTM (including italics and trademark symbol, preferably superscripted), the first time they use the phrase in any publication, and they should scatter the full phrase in a few more times as well. This is to protect the AMA's intellectual property through trademarks (the italics make it clear exactly what is trademarked). Providers also have to use a revised designation statement in their materials, which is available in the AMA Physician's Recognition Award Booklet 2006 revision, which can be downloaded from the AMA Web site, www.ama-assn.org.
The AMA will not begin monitoring for compliance until July 1, 2006, to give providers time to make these changes to CME materials.
Another change is that providers no longer have to undergo a provider application process to make international physicians eligible for AMA PRA Category 1 Credit. The AMA has taken out the "U.S. licensed" requirement. So that CME providers don't have to keep track of all the non-U.S. degrees, the credit claim form now just asks, "Are you a physician?" The AMA is, however, updating its database to allow non-U.S. designations.
Another change is that accredited providers now can award AMA PRA Category 1 Credit to their live-activity faculty. Faculty can earn two AMA PRA Category 1 Credits for each 60-minute teaching period, but they can't claim credit for both teaching and learning at the same activity. But they can claim credit for other activities held in conjunction with the one they're teaching. This policy also goes into effect July 1, 2006. The AMA also has been adopting performance improvement activities into the list of formats approved for AMA PRA Category 1 Credit, and this year, it has added Internet point-of-care learning to that list.

My first modular helmet. Was very impress with the Neotec out of the box but after using it for about 4 months the helmet is pretty noisy. I have a HJC full face that is about 6 years old and it is a lot quieter than the Shoei. Maybe it is due to the fact that it is a modular. Overall fit and comfort are very good. Just wish it was quieter. Was expecting a lot more considering the cost of the helmet.Read All Reviews

Got this helmet about 3 months ago! This is a great light weight helmet has a great range of vision! I love how light it is! Have used it in low and high speeds and it stays very comfortable with no buffeting! I like also that the chin straps and chin guard make it so that no wind comes in from underneath the helmet. Great purchase if you want a great light weight helmet.Read All Reviews

You're the only person that I know of who not only thinks that it would have been possible for the Colts to keep Manning and Luck on their roster at the same time, but who also believes that it would have made good football sense to do so.
Where did I say it made good football sense? It would have totally sucked for everyone involved. I'm talking about what owners/honchos can do if they want, the power over the player is what I'm talking about. That wasn't obvious?
Obviously even under that adverse situation Luck would have learned from Manning just by watching him play.

Wallpapering your Floor
This parquet border design came into the collection with a group of wallpapers all produced during the late 19th century. And if memory serves me correctly, this group of papers was found in San Francisco which means they survived the great earthquake and fire of 1906 which devastated the city. This was a diverse group of papers ranging from high-end block printed designs to more inexpensive mass-produced machine-printed designs. This roll of paper belonged to the latter group. It was printed in very few colors on very thin paper with a wood pulp composition.

Washington, D.C. - Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi spoke on the House floor today to honor retiring House Parliamentarian John Sullivan. Below are the Leader's remarks:
"Thank you Mr. Speaker. I thank the Speaker for yielding and I'm proud to join him to honor the long and distinguished service of the House Parliamentarian, John Sullivan.
"For 25 years, as has been said, he has served the House with distinction and dignity, integrity and intellect. He has used his keen mind, excellent legal training, and commitment to public service to make non-partisan, objective decisions. Always first in his mind was the Constitution and therefore, his undying respect for the institution of Congress. Indeed, through his service and his examples, John Sullivan has become an institution himself, a source of wise counsel and parliamentary leadership. And though his name rarely makes headlines, and his hard work is seldom noticed in the public eye, the American people have benefited greatly from his extraordinary career.
"A proud son of northwest Indiana, John Sullivan was a lawyer by training, a graduate of the Air Force Academy, and served our nation in the Judge Advocate General's office of the Air Force. He went on to advise the House Armed Services Committee, before joining the Parliamentarian's office. He would ultimately hold the title of Parliamentarian of the House of Representatives, a post occupied by only three others in the past 75 years. Wow. He has been a fair and independent voice, a professional of the highest caliber, a careful steward of the rules of the House - a true public servant.
"Mr. Speaker, as a point of personal pride, on June 2nd 1987, I was sworn-in as a result of a special election. And I was the first Member of Congress to take the Oath of Office during John's tenure. He will always hold, for many reasons, he will hold a long place of honor in the history of the House. And in my personal history as well.
"In a recent story on his career, John Sullivan summed up the key characteristics of his success. In his own words, he said: 'you have to be very attentive to every syllable being uttered and able to think on your feet,' as the Speaker said. Attention to detail, quick thinking, staying attuned to the letter of the law - these were the hallmarks of John Sullivan's service. He has left a lasting legacy, and I am confident that his deputy and replacement, Tom Wickham, will continue in the same fine tradition. We owe a debt of gratitude to all of our Parliamentarians, we owe a special debt of gratitude, and our heartfelt thanks on this day, to our Parliamentarian, John Sullivan. He has earned the respect and admiration of Members of Congress, and he will be missed. We wish him, his wife Nancy, and his children our best wishes for their future endeavors.
"Congratulations and thank you, John Sullivan."

G4L is a hard disk and partition imaging and cloning tool. The created images are optionally compressed, and they can be stored on a local hard drive or transferred to an anonymous FTP server. A drive can be cloned using the "Click'n'Clone" function. G4L supports file splitting if the local filesystem does not support writing files larger than 2GB. The included kernel supports ATA, serial-ATA, and SCSI drives. Common network cards are supported. It is packaged as a bootable CD image with an ncurses GUI for easy use.
GeeXboX is a standalone media player Linux distribution, similar to MoviX. It's a small bootable CD that allows you to play your favorite video (DivX, XviD, H.264, MPEG 1/2, VCD, DVD, OggMedia, Windows Media, RealMedia, etc.) and audio (MP3, Audio CD, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, MPC, etc.) files. It also supports networking, and is able to play media from Windows/Samba share, NFS, UPnP A/V Media Servers, RTP/RTSP servers, or SHOUTcast. It supports TV-out, TV tuners, DVB cards, and WiFi cards. It is based on MPlayer, and can be used on any x86, x86_64, or PowerPC computer. It's easy to modify the source to build your own GeeXboX or use an alternative boot method.
SystemRescueCd is a Linux system available from a bootable CDROM that provides an easy way to perform administrative tasks on your computer, such as creating and editing the partitions of the hard disk or backing up data. It contains a lot of system utilities (such as parted, partimage, and fstools), and basic programs (such as editors, midnight commander, and network tools). It also includes GParted, a Partition Magic clone that makes editing partitions easy with its graphical user interface. This CDROM aims to be very easy to use and accessible to everybody, and it also provides advanced personalization features.
m23 is a software deployment system for Debian GNU/Linux that allows you to install and administrate hundreds of clients via network. It can partition and format clients and install Debian, (K/X)Ubuntu, Linux Mint, Fedora, OpenSuse, and CentOS operating systems on your virtual and physical clients. Group functions allow the comfortable update and installation of further packages during operation. Mass installation functions simplify your administration chores. m23 has a Web interface. Backup functions are implemented for server and clients.
INSERT (the Inside Security Rescue Toolkit) aims to be a multi-functional, multi-purpose disaster recovery and network analysis system. It boots from a credit card-sized CD-ROM and is basically a stripped-down version of Knoppix. It features good hardware detection, fluxbox, emelfm, links-hacked, ssh, tcpdump, nmap, chntpwd, and much more. It provides full read-write support for NTFS partitions (using ntfs-3g), and the ClamAV virus scanner (including a fairly recent signature database and a GUI). It provides partition handling with gParted and also has a network boot facility.
NASLite is a Network Attached Storage (NAS) server operating system designed to transform a basic computer into a dedicated file server. Utilizing highly optimized versions of Samba, uCLibc, BusyBox, and various other Linux tools, it provides SMB/CIFS, FTP, or NFS filesystem support. It accommodates multiple client OSes: Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. NASLite offers SMART disk monitoring and large file support, and is incredibly easy to install and administer.
CentOS is an enterprise Linux distribution based on the sources from Red Hat Enterprise Linux. CentOS conforms with Red Hat's redistribution policy and aims to be 100% binary compatible. Each CentOS version is supported for 7 years (by means of security updates). A new CentOS version is released every 2 years and each CentOS version is regularly updated (every 6 months) to support newer hardware. Currently, there are 4 different supported CentOS releases: CentOS-5 is based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, CentOS-4 is based on RHEL4, CentOS-3 is based on RHEL3, and CentOS-2 is based on RHAS2.1.
The STUBS Toolchain and Utility Build Suite is a set of scripts which, together with a set of pre-written configuration files, builds one or more software packages in sequence. STUBS is designed to work in very minimal environments, including those without "make", and URLs are included so source and patches can be downloaded as necessary. Configuration files and scripts are provided which create boot media for Franki/Earlgrey Linux (one of several example busybox- and uClibc-based Linux environments) and the intention is that STUBS should be able to rebuild such an environment from within itself.
Gentoo Linux is a versatile and fast Linux distribution for x86, PowerPC, Sparc, and Sparc64 that's geared towards Linux power users. Unlike other distros, it has an advanced package management system called Portage. Portage is a true ports system in the tradition of BSD ports, but is Python-based and sports a number of advanced features including dependencies, fine-grained package management, "fake" (OpenBSD-style) installs, path sandboxing, safe unmerging, system profiles, virtual packages, config file management, and more.
A tool to conduct TCP performance analysis.
A modern task tracking application that follows open standards and supports tags, subtasks, and more.

I've never been a big fan of Styx but they put out an album, mid last decade called Big Bang Theory. They do a cover of I Can See For Miles which I like. While you are at it, check out their live version of I Am The Walrus. I was impressed by the diversity of the entire set!

JOSH YOU NEED TO EXPLAIN YOURSELF.. WHY DID YOU LEAVE OFF BABA O" RILEY BY PEARL JAM? If you did not know about it, you should not be writing for GW. If you knew about it but left it off, why? How is it not a better cover of a who song than some of the others you have mentioned? You list Pearl Jam as having the best cover, surely you respect Pearl Jam, so what is it about Baba O' Riley cover that you feel does not warrant being on this list? Explain yourself if you have the cuts to respond to your critics.
January 11, 2013 at 2:59pm
WOW! WOW! How can you write this article, name Pearl Jam number one, and miss Pearl Jam's cover of Baba'O Riley? A song they have covered multiply times! How? How can you over look that cover? It is by far the best cover of a who song. Which I would think you would agree with Pearl Jam does a great job covering the Who. But you did not even list it in the top 10. I really can not understand GW. The only conclusion I can come up with is that your writes leave out stuff in order to catch people's attention. I think the thinking is that if they just write good articles it would not inspire people to write comments. That is all I can say, because this happens all the time. But really HOW CAN YOU MISS BABA O' RILEY BY PEARL JAM, THIS REQUIRES AN EXPLANATION IT REALLY DOES.

November 9th, 2012
Mumbai, India (CNN) - India has been a nation of tea drinkers for centuries, but in the past decade coffee consumption has been growing. From Starbucks to Costa Coffee, coffee giants are moving into India, converting consumers from chai to cappuccino.
Last month, Starbucks opened its first outlet in India, partnering with Indian firm Tata.
"There's a tremendous amount of coffee being sold and served in this market," Howard Schultz, Starbucks chairman and CEO, told CNN's Mallika Kapur.
Though India's domestic coffee consumption is increasing annually, it's still relatively low. India's per-capita consumption of coffee is 82 grams per year: in the United States it's four kilos.
But in India coffee isn't what draws people to a cafe. "Cafes are actually a place where people go to meet," said Arvind Singhal, of retail consultancy Technopak Advisors.
"Coffee is incidental," he added. "Sometimes people ask this question, but India doesn't have a coffee culture. In India it doesn't matter. You could be serving lemonade in Starbucks in India but people will still come."
Modern, clean, and aspirational, cafes are particularly popular with India's youth. India's economic growth means many people have more spending power. They're traveling abroad, developing new tastes and adopting Western lifestyles.
Total revenue from the cafe market is $230 million this year, according to Technopak. And it expects the market to touch $410 million by 2017.
The current market leader - domestic brand Cafe Coffee Day - has more than 1,000 outlets across India and has plans to get even bigger.
"We are looking to be a 2,000-cafe brand by the end of 2014, which means we'd have to add a cafe every day and we are working towards that," said K Ramakrishnan, of Cafe Coffee Day.
International brands too are pursuing this market of a billion people. Costa is here. Dunkin' Donuts entered India in September, and the latest entry is Tata Starbucks.
"We will sell very high quality tea and chai here," said Schultz. "I suspect we're going to do extremely well here."
R K Krishnakumar, of Tata Global Beverages, said: "I think the opening of the Starbucks partnership is a comment on India's potential.
"When you open newspapers and on television channels you only see hear or read about the sad things in India. This is about the bright side of India. This is about the expanding market here."

So, yes. Apparently a fair amount of food writers and food bloggers are now up in arms about the brouhaha between Anthony Bourdain vs. James Beard Awards vs. Eatocracy (a name which I find just shy of "(rī)¹" in terms of sheer silliness. But considering the glass house of "Accidental Hedonist", perhaps I shouldn't be tossing pebbles too hard.) Others are involved as well, but really? It's difficult for me to get myself too riled up to care.
The basic premise of the argument is this – one side believes that The James Beard Awards are little more than an excuse for wealthy patrons to mingle with up-and-coming chefs looking for quick and easy PR, and food writers looking for handouts, none of whom would know the "real" status of the food world if a book of food stamps hit them in the face. As you can guess, Bourdain represents this side.
As far as I can tell, the other side, represented by Eatocracy, is saying "Well, yes, part of that may be true, but don't paint everyone with the same brush."
There are other side arguments here, including the validity of Ruth Bourdain's nomination in the humor category, the scuzziness of John Mariani, and the hypocrisy of Anthony Bourdain in writing his screed whilst galavanting in Italy. Most of that, as far as I am concerned, is little more than white noise.
The part that I find humorous in all of this, is the complete lack of defense to the initial charge by Bourdain – that there are those in the food media who live in a world that is contrary to what is actually out there, and that the James Beard Awards help propagate that insular world-view.
We see evidence of this all the time in food writing. Just the other day, on a food site that shall go nameless, a published author stated that they didn't understand why organic foods were more expensive than most produce, that the problem was far too difficult to answer, and that we should all (well, those of us who made enough money and cared enough for our children) buy organic. The fact that we live on a planet that has to feed 7 billion people, and needs foods that have long, stable shelf lives in order to help accomplish this goal, was completely lost on this writer.
I've alluded to it many times before, but let me come out and say it direct. Many of us in food media live in a bubble. Writers, chefs, marketers, and publicists, all groups have people who, when you mention food culture, majority privilege, or the effects of poverty on consumption patterns, you may as well be mentioning quantum physics or string theory.
Is this a problem? Only if you take the food media seriously. If one believes that food media equates to journalism, then yes. This is a problem. But the majority of food writing out there isn't journalism, not by any stretch of the imagination. It's entertainment. For many out there, regardless of if they are writers or chefs, their goal is to titillate, not to inform. Yes, there are exceptions. But for every one of them, there are ten who are looking to, as Bourdain says, "spend their hours and days writing about 'kicky new muffin recipes' , 'Pie: The Next Big Thing' or attending launches for bottled water, restaurant openings, and anywhere they can fill their plastic lined pockets with free food and swag."
Most days, I feel a great sense of disdain for this ratio of 1 to 10. The reasons are personal more than professional. However, the more I think of it, the more the arguments start to sound like the type of arguments I heard in the mid-90′s. "What, you like Pearl Jam? Pfff. They're nothing. You haven't heard real grunge unless you saw Mother Love Bone back in the day." If given a choice between reading another Beer-Can Cookbook versus talking to that guy? I'll take the Beer Can Cookbook, thank you very much.
In fact, the music analogy works for me. We food folk have the James Beard Awards, the music industry has the Grammy Awards. Both are meant more to promote as much as they are to acknowledge. And for the life of me, I can't tell you who won in any of the categories over the past five years.

Austin >Automotive Sales & Services > Arbor Car Wash & Lube Ctr
10401 Jollyville Rd, Austin, TX | Directions 7875930.397438 -97.749855
Neighborhoods: Oakview
Best customer service ever!!! – I took my vehicle to the Arbor Lube Center on Lakecreek Pkwy. thinking it was still a JiffyLube. I almost left when the gentleman who greeted me informed me of this since I had been bringing my vehicles to this location for quite some time. "He", the attendant who turns out to actually be the manager explains that the place is now locally owned. He explained the prices which were no different than Jiffylubes actually cheaper since i use a synthetic oil. The manager who happend to be the one who serviced my vehicle, checked my tires,reviewed my service recommendations and rang me out. He also informed me that I could go 6k miles on synthetic oil instead of 3k like Jiffylube would say. His honesty was greatley appreciated, this place knows how to get your business and I recommend anyone needing automotive service to bring their car here! Plus you get a free full service carwash.
Awesome place after a rainy day – Ever notice after a big rain storm how dirty a car can look...Anyway I went here and was just wanting to get my baby clean. Little did i know i was over due on my oil. I was told that my car wash would be free if i was getting my oil changed...Rock n roll.. Cool...I was out of there with in 30 minutes for oil and clean.
Great Place – I was able to wash my car and geta oil change in one stop. all i had to do was pay for it lol.. they did everything else
Best Service in Town – I have been a repeat customer of the Arbor for a couple of years. I am always very pleased with their staff and the atmosphere they have created. I feel that I can kick my heels off for a few minutes while I am there and relax. I admitted that I can be a picky person but every single time I want a specific spot cleaned or maybe some extra attention to a certain area they have always taken care of my vehicle without complaining.
I also have used their oil change facility a few times and I can say based off of all of the other places I have been in the past this place is by far The Best!! Yes... someone will eventually come up to you and cover the recommended services for your vehicle, but I have had them come to me and say that my vehicle is in perfect running condition and all my maintenancs seems to be up to date.
They have earned my trust!! Keep up the Good work!!
Hidden Surprise on Jollyville – After moving from Detroit a month ago I have been hesitant to find a new place to handle the maintenance of my Mercedes after using the same service center for years up North. Problem is now solved with an added bonus of a one stop shop. Oil change, car wash, and popcorn? Sold! And I hate popcorn but inhaled a bag anyway. You Texans have made my transition a little easier. Have the popcorn ready because I'll be back.
Really i get a wash too – I was going to go to find a new place to get my oil changed and decided to google. I found this place and wow am i impressed.. I have never got a oil change and a car wash at the same place.. Great concept. The shop was clean and all the people there were really nice and freindly. I will be back again and again.
Good wash. Bad Used Car Salesman like greeters. – The first time I went there, it was a pleasant experience. The guy over the phone was nice and he even took in my car right at close.
On my second visit a few weeks later, I pulled up to get my car washed on Friday, May 15th around 4pm. I usually don't get the extras (wheel shining, wax, etc.) because I know all the extras are not worth the money and usually something like armor all on my low-profile tires usually spin off while I drive anyways. I usually clean my wheels the way I want at home. Plus, I don't drive the car much and there's only brake dust on my wheels.
Anyways, when I pulled up, I told them that I want the basic full service for $12.95. The greeter (Caucasian, with slick back hair, wearing aviator sunglasses) said in a fast-talking used car salesman way "You don't want your wheel shined or dash armor alled or anything?" I said "no".
He said, "Huh, I never seen a BMW washed with dirty wheels." I said, "Do you want me to take my car somewhere else? There are plenty of places on the same street that I can take it to."
Anyways, I ended up washing it there. People like this are not the best first impression for Arbor Car Wash. I hope they realize that.
Friendly, Austin Family Owned – We've been using Arbor car wash for our car washes and oil changes for over 4 years. I have found them to be friendly and honest. They recommend service from the dealer's guide only and offer decent prices. Most importantly, they have a very friendly house dog that rans around...very Austiny.
Simply shocked....!! – I am truly shocked that Arbor Car Wash is listed here as #1. Here are some points of my experience this past Sat.:
- they didn't vacuum the back seat floorboards. When I pointed that out, they were annoyed and then did it quite poorly.
- the finisher didn't even wipe my dashboard at all. Same dust is there as when I went in.
- my windshield is filthy; inside and out. I had to redo them myself when I got home.
- when he pulled the car up, after the shoddy re-vacuum job, he put the window down and up, and didn't reclean it. You can imagine the water spots and streaking that caused.
- the door jams were not cleaned or wiped
This was such a disappointing experience. I bought the "Valentine's Day 2 for 1 Special" so I get the next deluxe service free. What a waste, since I will not be going back here again.
1ST TIME AND LEFT WITH DAMAGE - COMPANY MOTO NOT MY PROBLEM – I went in their to get a detail on my car and left with damaged seats. The company took blame for the mistake but then when it came down to the bill were not willing to pay the full amount. I had to repeatedly contact the company to get the ball rolling to get my seats fixed , when they would always inform me they would contact me back and never did. Because the company is was not willing to pay for full damage I am ending up having to take it to the next level. I would not recommend taking your vehicle cause i would hate for anyone else to be in this type of situation. i am now having to pay $600 out of pocket for something that was not my fault at all!

Artful Display of 5,000 Pumpkins to Run October 3rd – November 3rd
Twitter post: Acclaimed Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular returns to Roger Williams Park Zoo, Providence, RI every night Oct. 3rd - Nov. 3rd www.rwpzoo.org
Providence, RI— The acclaimed Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular presented by Citizens Bank will return to Roger Williams Park Zoo in Providence with shows running nightly from October 3rd through November 3rd. This highly anticipated annual event features a breathtaking display of 5,000 illuminated jack-o-lanterns, with over 125 of them artistically carved and displayed in scenes to play out the annual theme.
Situated on the Zoo's picturesque wetlands trail, the event has won praise from across the nation for its amazing artistry and appeal as a unique family-friendly autumn destination. Over 100,000 people have come in each of the past three years to enjoy the night time show, and last year's Spectacular set an all-time record of over 110,000 visitors.
"Citizens Bank is pleased to sponsor the Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular, which continues to be a family favorite year after year," said Ned Handy, President, Citizens Bank, Rhode Island. "This incredible pumpkin display continues to amaze spectators both young and old. We are looking forward to another successful season."
The 2013 presentation, titled Pumpkinville, USA, will delight new and repeat visitors alike. Intricate pumpkin art will represent regions of the country, highlighting their unique attributes and as well as historical and cultural landmarks of each of the states. Regions will include Heartland of America, Pacific Coast, Mid-Atlantic, New England, and Appalachian Highlands. One scene will commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation and another will honor President Kennedy.
Show standards will return, such as the childhood favorites and Halloween scenes, and the show's dazzling grand finale, the Laughing Tree. Hundreds of glowing jack-o-lanterns on the ground and high up in the trees surround carved giants (well over 1,000 pounds) amid spooky fog and music, punctuated by its iconic catchy beat and laughter.
Crews from Passion for Pumpkins, the show creators, will spend several weeks leading up to the event creating the magical display. Then, they will work nearly around the clock throughout the 32 night run to keep the show fresh for visitors.
2013 Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular details:
The Show will run rain or shine from October 3th through November 3rd from 6 pm to 11 pm, with the last admission at 10 pm. The event will be extended one hour on Saturdays to close at midnight with the last admission at 11 pm.
The Spectacular is an important fundraiser for Roger Williams Park Zoo. Proceeds from the event will help to support the Zoo's environmental education and conservation efforts both locally and around the globe as well as Zoo improvements.
Tickets prices on Monday - Thursday are $12 adults, $10 seniors and $9 for children ages 3 – 12, with children under three admitted for free. Admission prices on Friday - Sunday are $15 adults, $13 seniors and $12 children ages 3 – 12; children two and under are admitted for free.
Visitors can purchase a meal package in addition to their Spectacular admission tickets and then enjoy express entry to the beginning of the pumpkin trail. Full details for each of the offerings will be available on the zoo's website. The popular Harvest Buffet will be available Friday – Sunday nights at $24.95 for adults and $12.95 for children. Moonlight Meal Deals will be offered Monday – Thursday nights at $15 for adults and $10 for children. Again, meal tickets will be purchased in addition to Spectacular admission tickets and will include express entry to the pumpkin trail.
Groups of 25 or more may call (401) 467-0150 for advance reservations and group rates. (No individual advance tickets will be sold.) For more information, visit the Zoo's website, call (401) 785-3510, or write to email@example.com.
Roger Williams Park Zoo is conveniently located in Providence, RI at exit 16 off Interstate I-95 north and exit 17 off I-95 south, about 1 hour from Boston and 90 minutes from Hartford.
Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular founder and history:
The Spectacular was founded many years ago by John Reckner, an Oxford, Massachusetts resident who recently retired from his postal carrier career. Inspired by a Vermont farm he had seen lined with glowing jack-o-lanterns, Reckner organized the first Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular in Oxford in 1988. The jack-o-lanterns featured in this first event were carved by local residents and displayed for only one evening on a hillside behind a local school. About 300 spectators attended. Today, Mr. Reckner, his family, and their crew of jack-o-lantern artists now known as Passion for Pumpkins, continue to bring the Spectacular to life.
Selected by the U.S. Library of Congress as a national "local legacy," and praised as "…one of the most brilliant displays of holiday artistry anywhere in the U.S. (offmetro.com/ny)," the Spectacular has also been featured by Martha Stewart Living, The Travel Channel, The Today Show, The Early Show, USA Today and CNN, and hailed by the Associated Press as "extraordinary." It was featured on abc.com as one of the "top 11 Spookiest Destinations" in the country. The Jack-O-Lantern Spectacular was selected by the American Bus Association as one of the nation's top 100 events. The Boston Globe called the presentation "awe-inspiring."
Roger Williams Park Zoo, one of the oldest in the nation, is Rhode Island's number one outdoor family and tourist attraction, and is also a
leader in conservation efforts undertaken by a zoo of its size. The Zoo has received numerous awards for environmental education, and
conservation work done locally and around the world, caring for species that without human intervention would face certain extinction.
Roger Williams Park Zoo is supported and managed by the Rhode Island Zoological Society and is owned by the City of Providence.

Color Your Idea! Lenovo Brings New Colors, Sizes and Features to IdeaPad Consumer Notebooks
Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur, July 16, 2008 – Lenovo today introduced four new notebooks for consumers to express themselves with more choices of color, including Indigo blue, Bold black and Crimson red. In addition, the four notebooks also come with consumer-focused features including expanded facial recognition capabilities for simple and convenient log-on, One-Key Rescue System to recover your ideas with just one touch, HDMI to connect to the digital world and optional Blu-Ray DVD players on select models for enjoying high-definition content.
The announcement brings two new notebook form factors - the 13-inch widescreen IdeaPad Y330 and U330 notebooks and the 14-inch widescreen IdeaPad Y430 notebook – to the IdeaPad line. Additionally, the new IdeaPad Y530 notebook round out Lenovo's expanded consumer notebook portfolio. All of the notebooks are based on the latest Intel® Centrino® 2 processor technology.
"From San Francisco to Paris to Singapore, customer feedback on our inaugural IdeaPad notebooks has been exceptional," said Eric Zhao, Country Manager, Consumer Business, Lenovo Malaysia. "Our new styles, colors and innovations are all about customers and the ways they express themselves and their ideas."
IdeaPad U330Lenovo designed its "U" series to be all about expressing ideas with style. The IdeaPad U330 notebook is a super-slim ultra-light addition to the widely-acclaimed IdeaPad U110 notebook, introduced in the spring. Available in a glossy Indigo blue, the notebook starts at 2.29 cm thin and weighs in at just over 1.8 kg.
Equipped with the latest version of VeriFace™ facial recognition technology, consumers can now access encrypted files and to record a 30-second video message for others users. Designed with Dolby® Home Theatre and touch-sensitive multimedia controls, the notebook comes equipped with HDMI and an optional built-in DVD burner.
The IdeaPad U330 notebook also includes switchable graphics. This enables the user to run energy-efficient integrated graphics while on battery power and then switch to high-definition discrete graphics for more powerful performance when "plugged in." The notebook also offers an LED backlit display, five hours of battery life and Lenovo's Active Protection System (APS), a feature pioneered on ThinkPad notebooks. Lenovo's APS technology helps protect the data on the hard drive if the notebook should fall. And if the operating system should crash, users can recover their data at the touch of a button with the One-Key Rescue System.
IdeaPad Y330The IdeaPad Y330 notebook finds the perfect balance between style, entertainment and performance. The notebook sports a shingle design on the top cover and palm rest that comes in Bold black. Designed for strong mobile performance, it combines the features the IdeaPad notebooks are known for with even more including a built-in DVD burner and camera, up to 4 GB of memory, up to a 320 GB hard drive and the latest wireless connectivity options including Bluetooth.
IdeaPad Y430 & Y530The IdeaPad Y430 and Y530 notebooks make mainstream notebooks fun and functional. Available in Bold black or a new Crimson red textured design on the IdeaPad Y430 notebook, consumers can enjoy all the features that make the "Idea" brand unique. Additionally, they may choose between a framed or frameless screen as well as an optional Blu-Ray DVD player.

The Easter weekend played host to an entertaining night of kickboxing as
the Victoria Dance Connection played host to the sixth installment of
Quest for the Title.
Kieran Mueller over John Panke via Unanimous Decision
Mueller controlled most of the action on the night, using his superior hand speed to keep his game but over matched opponent John Panke on the defensive, and on the wrong side of a unanimous three-round decision.
Scott Judson defeated Nate Gray via Decision
An exciting bout between the biggest competitors on the card saw a back-and-forth bout with Scott Judson working his way to the inside and Nate Gray looking for leg kicks and punches from the outside. In the end the power shots of Judson proved to be the difference as he took the entertaining bout after three rounds of action.
Liz Williams defeated Liz Lampard via Unanimous Decision
Two Liz's went to war as Liz Williams and Liz Lampard both made their kickboxing debuts. Williams was able to stay a little busier keeping her jab in Lampard's face and scoring a left-high kick knockdown in the third stanza to take the decision after three busy rounds.
Capoeira Demonstration
Leigh Mueller vs. Tom Mattu is a Draw
The action continued as Leigh Mueller took on Tom Mattu in a welterweight bout. From the outset it appeared Mueller was looking to stay busy with his boxing with Mattu more interested in mixing up leg kicks attacks into the equation. Mueller was able to stun Mattu in the second stanza with his combinations and appeared to have the fight in the bag but Mattu was able to survive to garner a draw after three rounds. MMARR scored the bout in favor of Mueller in part due to a larger amount of damage in the second round but in the end it was declared a draw.
Chase Ingalls defeated Bruce Khademi to become the BC Champion
Chase Ingalls returned to action and continued to climb the ladder with a solid victory over BC champion Bruce Khademi in a BC Title bout. Vancouver's Khademi was solid all around but Ingalls continually beat Khademi to the punch landing solid punches and using his reach throughout four rounds of action to secure the decision. 18-year-old Ingalls takes the BC title from Khademi in his toughest fight to date.
Myles Lohman defeated Brian Chou via Split Decision
Comox's Myles Lohman was able to come from behind to take the four-round decision from Victoria's Brian Chou in the main event. Brian Chou came into the bout as the heavy favorite despite being the challenger and proved his worth in the early goings stunning Lohman with stiff knee's to the body and pin-point low kicks that Loman had trouble defending. Chou drove numerous flying knee's to the sternum and controlled much of the clinch in the early goings, evading the boxing prowess of the Canadian Title holder and appeared to be cruising to a victory as the second round came to a close.
The second half of the fight proved to be a very different affair as Lohman showed his championship mettle, pushing through the body attacks to swarm a fading Chou with flurries of punches that had Chou on the defensive. While Chou's offense faded, Lohman's came on. Lohman was able to control much of the action in the third and fourth rounds, and scored enough points in the process to overcome the early deficit and retain his Canadian Championship in a close bout that could have easily gone either way. In the end it was Lohman who retained the belt in an entertaining showing by both competitors.

Orlando >Food & Dining > Brio Tuscan Grille

Bellini Brunch menu: Sat-Sun 11am-3pm
Sun-Thu 11am-10pm

Neighborhoods: Millenia, Southwest
Great food, Great value, Scary decor – I would LOVE to return to this restaurant and try other tempting items on the menu. However, during my visit our party kept worrying that the thick layer of dust all over the decor including the fake palm trees would blow onto our plates if the heat kicked on. I know most dining places aren't meticulous about cleaning the decor, but this is extreme. The palms actually look furry! Makes you wonder how clean the kitchen is. Anyway, if they would literally clean up their act, they would have a very good restaurant. The food was delicious and the price was a great value. Too bad.
Superb Restaurant! – This is one of the best italian restaurants in Orlando! I have been to the Brio Tusan Grille many times and they never fail to impress. The restaurant is located in a very convenient place inside the Mall at Millenia. The atmosphere is very warm and inviting, a little noisy due to its popularity but tolerable. The waiters and waitresses are always very friendly and professional, I have yet to get a waiter that doesnt impress me with excellent service. They have a great selection of pasta and specialities, they are all delichous! Be sure to try the Lobster Bisque Soup, my personal favorite soup. I strongly recommend this restaurant to everyone, whether its a casual family lunch or romantic dinner, its a perfect place!
Immerse yourself in the airy elegance of a Tuscan garden--and leave the mall behind. – The Scene
Skip the spa and simply have dinner at Brio, where Italian arches, rich draperies, white marble, dark wood and huge domed chandeliers set a soothing tone of non-pretentious luxury.
The Food
Brio claims to be known for its steaks and chops, but if you're going for Italian, I say go for the carbs. From the fall flavors of roasted chicken and butternut squash risotto to the classic olive-oil doused Penne Mediterranean, a pasta perfect in its simplicty, Brio proves freshness makes all the difference. (You won't find any dried herbs or frozen veggies here.) Brio manages to make Italian both light and satisfying, just like it's done in Italy.
Good italian food – I had the carbonara pasta (spaghetti, maybe?). It was really good. The best carbonara I've had outside of a family-run italian restaurant. The way on the saturday night we went was 45 minutes. But that beats the 3+ hours at the places next door! Can't wait to go back and try something else.
Excellent Food in Excellent Mall! – The food and service are excellent. The scenary inside is gorgeous and very clean. You are not on top of each other inside there you actually have room to eat. I have been there numerous times and it is the perfect meal for lunch or dinner. I would recommend this to everyone I know!
Please give them a chance!
When can I go back? – I've had lobster bisque in Boston, and Brio takes the cake for the best I've had! My wife and I thought we'd end up spending more than what we did, and everything we had was well-worth it!
